TV01: Was that it, the shaming of TV And it boils down poaching and re-posting pix of happy times
Let's see who the protagonists where shall we ;
Mindfulness - marriage wrecker husband snatcher, teef pikin join . Shaybebaby - marriage breaker, unable to hold onto a man . Chillisauce - Old cargo emeritus, marriage of convenience, porn is her comfort .
Anyone of repute? Anyone held in high-esteem in these parts?? Anyone of proven character. Just liars, decievers & covenant-breakers
Believe me, there are loads of people who would like to see me humbled , but even they know such a display, rather than shame me, would only expose them as coarse. There's a certain level of vulgarity people with basic decency cannot descend to.
Remind me again, what's the sin in showing pictures of family and happy times . You really must try harder - although you'll fail continually
Shymm3xx: Lol. Why "all over the house", tho? That's the tune that got him blacklisted in the UK, due to the porn flick he used and most thought his career was over after that. Heck, a lot of chics (the guy is a sex symbol in the UK and he has always been since he came out) will never forgive him for the tune. But thank God he went back to the drawing board after about 2-3 years hiatus and, did something major in America, for people to start gravitating towards him again. And he's at the highest point of his career right now and he's treated like John Lennon in the UK. His friendship with Drake also helped.
He's doing the biggest show ever promoted independently by a UK artist ever in Dec. I think Drake is coming as well and the show is already sold out.
Shymm3xx: That's a big and can you believe they shot that video with just £12? And the other guy in the video, JME, is his younger brother. JME has a first class degree and I think distinction in his MSc degree.
Yes, it's Okogwu. I didn't make the "Proper Igbo" thingy up, I'm just relating what they say. Where you from in naij and where do you live?
Anyway, I'm just posting Skepta cos he raps clearly, unlike all the other grime artists. You've to be British with a proper understanding of London slangs to be able to understand the rest of them, due to the accent. Dizzee Rascal and Ghetto are two classic example. That's cos grime started in East London and a lot of people from East tend to speak with bits of cockney flair in their accent. Skepta is from North London, hence he's like that. And most people from South and West London don't really do grime (we're more into rap/trap music) and the few that do aren't really major, until recently with Stormzy and Novelist.
This is another classic grime tune from Skepta ft Wiley:
I totally believe the bolded that much is obvious. Doesn't take anything away from the awesomeness of the track, though.
I know you're not making the proper Igbo thingy up. Lots of people out here say it and it's not funny. I'm from Port Harcourt - my hometown is separated from Abia by a river, and I live in Port Harcourt as well.
The Wiley and Skepta track is dope. I think you just birthed a grime fan Perhaps one of the few in Naija lol. The only Skepta song folks know here is "All over the house" because of the video, and when you mention Skepta that's all they know. I'm checking him out right now.
Shymm3xx: His last name is Odogwu and all the people I know from Delta always say they're technically Igbo. I'm going to see his cousin, Ollie, in a bit at the gym and I might post his picture. Though he has tattoos all over his body, except his legs, neck, and face - he's a different type of Delta Igbo nyggah.
Yes. Grime is similar to rap and I'll call it a sub-genre of rap - but it evolved from garage music and the sound is 140bpm, with mostly one-line flow. But it isn't ya typical rap - it's similar to how Wale raps on DC's gogo music. However, it's quintessentially British.
That track is . Damn, I just had to download it. Will check out his other stuff when I have the time.
So the "what you mean, what you mean" is what he meant when he said "sitting here thinking how this whole thing started from what you mean what you mean" in 'Big'. Always wondered.
As for Tinie,his last name is Okogwu. Anyway, I just hate the whole "Proper Igbo" talk, since it would mean I'm not proper Igbo lol.
Tinie doesn't even do grime - he does pop music like the typical soft Igbo nyggah. He isn't even proper Igbo, he's from Delta and I know his dad, the big barber from Old Kent Rd. back in the day. His cousin ollie is my boy - he's from Peckham.
Wiley is the godfather of grime.
Skepta (Yoruba guy) and Dizzie Rascal (half-Yoruba guy) are the kings of grime.
And Skepta has always been the UK sex symbol when it come urban music in the UK since 2003. Girls love him to death.
Which one be proper Igbo again? Does it get more proper than Chukwuemeka?
Anyway, I don't know much about grime nor am I particularly interested, and I don't care if Tinie is the King or scum of grime. His skin has to be the crown of God's creation and I just love guys with that shade of black .
I have just one Skepta song on my list and it sounds like normal rap to me. D'you mind posting a nice grime song?
You definitely deserve an Oduduwa stamp for telling the truth.
CSTR14, one of ya sisters has joined the Oduduwa team. Seethe my nyggah - we've taken three already on this thread.
Closest I've come to Yoruba is Itsekiri. Never kicked it with a South-West nigga.
I've only dated Urhobo-Itsekiri and Edo, and Rivers guys, but never Yoruba lol. You guys are cool,though. Manly enough with the kind of chocolate skin I love. Not light-skinned like most of my Igbo brothers
That nyggah Flavor has more flavor than rainbow brite gang - he's colour rainbow with his gayness.
Have you seen that homo nyggah dance? Holy moly, I saw the thread on here and I almost puked. Gay arse nyggah.
Yoruba dons stay manly and handsome. That's why all Igbo chics wanna have our babies.
Flavour, gay?? . Lol. This guy came to a wedding I attended and took two chics home. And doesn't he have two baby mamas? He's just your regular Nigerian man-ho and I've met chics who like that dance he does because it's reminiscent of ermm
Igbo guys are fine, no doubt, but they're too damn pretty. Pretty boys aren't really my thing and I've never dated an Igbo guy, despite being Igbo myself . Closest I've come to Igbo is a half-Ikwerre guy lol.
The author of that article seems very, very pained and extremely bitter though. Seems like his dealings with single mums haven't been particularly smooth or enjoyable. He should wipe away his tears and move on,biko.
And why would a normal human being sef want a woman to forget her child and make him the focal point of her life? It is wa o. I guess one has to be extremely selfish to be a "real man".
prof1990: Nothing wrong in having tattoos. Nairaland is filled with regressive minds that blame people for their own under achievements. some retards will blame Buhari for this
Why is she surprised na? No be Nigerians and their warped logic again? She's unmarried, a single mother, and she's got dreadlocks. Therefore she is a witch.
